Texas Instruments BQ40Z80EVM-020 Evaluation Module

Texas Instruments BQ40Z80EVM-020 Evaluation Module offers PC software to log cycling data and evaluate the overall functionality of the solution under the different charge and discharge conditions. The BQ40Z80EVM-020 provides one bq40z80, two bq771807 secondary protectors, and a link to Microsoft Windows-based PC software, which can be used to monitor and predict capacity. The device performs cell balancing, monitors critical parameters, protects the cells from overcharge, over-discharge, short circuit, and overcurrent in 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, or 7-series cell Li-ion or Li-polymer battery packs. The circuit includes an onboard EV2400 interface to USB so the software can read bqz40z80 data registers and program the chipset for different pack configurations.
